Intersemiotic translation

Description

ABSTRACT:
Based on the theory of intersemiotic translation developed by Julio Plaza, the central purpose of this research is to analyze the process of recreation of aesthetical forms in intersemiotic translations of haiku into the universe of visual arts. More specifically, considering the peculiarities of this type of poem in its syntactic, semantic and pragmatic aspects, we will analyze how the equivalences of these levels will be obtained in the process of intersign trnasmutation. Besides, since the media of artistic production are important, especially in the process of intersemiotic translation, we will observe how the media can aid the achievement of equivalence. As a case study, we propose to analyze intersemiotic translations of the haiku "Furuikeya" (composed by the Japanese poet Matsuo Basho) into visual arts in three different types of medium, chosen for the semiotic peculiarities in relation to the process of image production: craft media; mechanical media; and electronic media.
